Urethral duplication with five openings in anal canal: A novel case report.

Abstract

Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by more than one urethral channel, with varied course, location of the external opening, and presentation. Presentations can be varied, depending upon individual anatomical dispensation but mostly present as obstruction, recurrent urinary infection, or double urinary stream. Treatment depends on the type of duplication and associated anomalies. Here, we report a case of urethral duplication which did not fit into any known reported type of urethral duplication forms and had five openings at the anal verge.
